Re: [ha-Safran] Non-Jewish speakers

2014-01-09 Thread Amalia Warshenbrot

I am I the minority. It is the contents that matters not the religion of the 
author. According to the author the Jewish contents is minimal. I prefer books 
that teach about our religion, culture, History, current issues  Israel etc.

Re: [ha-Safran] Non-Jewish speakers

2014-01-09 Thread RCFRISCHER

I would like to weigh in with a hearty agreement that content and literary  
worth should be the determining factors, not the author's religion, gender, 
 hair color or associates. Rachel may remember we featured a number of  
speakers at Sinai Temple, during long-ago days in LA, whose work was  
significant in terms of Jewish interest, values, history or culture but who 
were  not 
MOT's. 
 
I wish her well in educating her committee. With her help,  they'll learn 
to deepen their collection and expand their programming,  not  limit it by 
setting up inappropriate barriers. Lois's example is well  taken and her 
advice worth following. 
 
Best of luck,
Rita

Dear Hasafranim,


We  have a respected professor and historical novelist in town -- Grace  
Tiffany -- who just wrote a book called Paint set during the  Shakespearean 
era, the protagonist being a part Jewish, part Italian  female poet. According 
to the author herself, the Jewish content is  minimal. However, she also 
wrote an earlier book, based on The Merchant of  Venice called The Turquoise  
Ring, which is primarily Jewish.


I'm  considering inviting her to speak, but one member of my library 
committee  suggested that, as a Jewish institution, it would be best to support 
 
Jewish authors exclusively. Such a thing never occurred to me; to me, as  
long as the scholarship and perspective is sound, then the author should  have 
something of great value to impart. 


I'm  curious as to what others have done and considered regarding 
non-Jewish  speakers.

earlier book, based on The Merchant of Venice called The Turquoise Ring, which 
is primarily Jewish.

I'm considering inviting her to speak, but one member of my library committee 
suggested that, as a Jewish institution, it would be best to support Jewish 
authors exclusively. Such a thing never occurred to me; to me, as long as the 
scholarship and perspective is sound, then the author should have something of 
great value to impart.

I'm curious as to what others have done and considered regarding non-Jewish 
speakers.

Re: [ha-Safran] Non-Jewish speakers

2014-01-09 Thread Lois Ruby

I'm stunned by the notion that Rachel's committee would object to having this 
non-Jewish (and worthy) author speak. Yes, we need to support our local Jewish 
authors. In fact, my library committee is sponsoring its second Author Panel 
wherein local Jewish authors who write on mostly secular topics discuss their 
work. However, a library represents first and foremost the literature, not the 
author. Let's look at it from a different perspective. I am a Jewish author, 
and I am currently invited to speak at two Catholic schools. They apparently 
don't feel they need to support only Catholic writers. So, I say invite Grace 
Tiffany and promote it robustly! L OIS RUBY www.loisruby.com Author of ...

[ha-Safran] Interesting article re: Jewish Geneology from Slate

2014-01-09 Thread Stephanie L Gross

Here's The Fascinating Origin Of Almost Every Jewish Last Name

Bennett 
Muraskin,
 Slate

Ashkenazic Jews were among the last Europeans to take family names. Some 
German-speaking Jews took last names as early as the 17th century, but the 
overwhelming majority of Jews lived in Eastern Europe and did not take last 
names until compelled to do 
so. The 
process began in the Austro-Hungarian Empire in 1787 and ended in Czarist 
Russia in 1844.

In attempting to build modern nation-states, the authorities insisted that Jews 
take last names so that they could be taxed, drafted, and educated (in that 
order of importance). For centuries, Jewish communal leaders were responsible 
for collecting taxes from the Jewish population on behalf of the government, 
and in some cases were responsible for filling draft quotas. Education was 
traditionally an internal Jewish affair.

[ha-Safran] Non-Jewish speakers

2014-01-09 Thread Rachel Haus

Dear Hasafranim,

We have a respected professor and historical novelist in town -- Grace Tiffany 
-- who just wrote a book called Paint set during the Shakespearean era, the 
protagonist being a part Jewish, part Italian female poet. According to the 
author herself, the Jewish content is minimal. However, she also wrote an 
earlier book, based on The Merchant of Venice called The Turquoise Ring, which 
is primarily Jewish.

I'm considering inviting her to speak, but one member of my library committee 
suggested that, as a Jewish institution, it would be best to support Jewish 
authors exclusively. Such a thing never occurred to me; to me, as long as the 
scholarship and perspective is sound, then the author should have something of 
great value to impart. 

I'm curious as to what others have done and considered regarding non-Jewish 
speakers.

2014-01-09 Thread Jacob Richman

Hi Everyone!

Today's Google Doodle honors Chaim Nachman Bialik, who was 
one of the pioneers of modern Hebrew poetry and came to be 
recognized as Israel's national poet.

I posted the Google Doodle at:
http://www.jr.co.il/t/doodles/index-2014.htm

I also posted on the page a video of Arik Einstein singing the 
Hebrew song: "Bring Me in Under your Wings"
The lyrics were written by Chaim Nachman Bialik.

FYI - I graduated from Bialik Elementary School which was named
after the poet. My mom a"h, taught Hebrew at Bialik School
from 1964 to 1982.

I also upload the doodle to my Facbeook album at:
http://bit.ly/Cool-Google-Doodles

Please share with friends. Thank you!

Have a good day,
Jacob
